it genuinely is a good book, eleanor is funny and there is a good balance of humour and tenseness/sadness of the book and the story is written well to reflect a character with severe trauma and how she processes this as the story goes along.

In the beginning of the book I did not like the main character āEleanorā but at the end I do like her! I think it was interesting, she has never really had friends and is therefore not used to unspoken things and manners. After listening and getting to know her I find her more likable and especially her friend Reman (donāt know his spelling).
I think I will give this one a 5 even though Iām not 100% sure. I think itās better than the book I gave 4.5, but Iām not sure if I love it as much as the other I gave 5!

on a serious note, it was nice to see someone get better.
I took one of my hands in the other, tried to imagine what it would feel like if it was another personās hand holding mine. There have been times when I felt that I might die of loneliness. People sometimes say they might die of boredom, that theyāre dying for a cup of tea, but for me, dying of loneliness is not hyperbole. When I feel like that, my head drops and my shoulders slump and I ache, I physically ache, for human contactāI truly feel that I might tumble to the ground and pass away if someone doesnāt hold me, touch me.
